<p>Only one, and it was due to a failed DVD drive instead of the usual RRoD</p>

<p>Neither of mine have died (gave my first one to my sister and got one with a bigger HD and stuff), but I used them pretty lightly.</p>

<p>Halo 3 edition. Not a launch machine, but still the launch hardware (two production runs before the first change). Bought new for $100 the last day before Circuit City closed. Still running 12k achievement points later.</p>

<p>I went straight for the Slim.&nbsp; On my first, a 250GB M$ refurb.&nbsp; I&#39;ve had it for two years now, and it&#39;s still going strong.</p>

<p>I voted &quot;four or more&quot; but I suppose if you want to be technical, it&#39;s three-- one unit that died and was fixed under warranty and came back died for a second a few years later. Currently I have two working units, an Arcade and a custom ODST&nbsp;box. Both seem to be doing fine (fingers crossed).&nbsp;</p>

<p>None personally but I worked retail during the first wave of releases before they actually got their act together. During a major promo the store I worked in got 1000 promo units that included a game. This promo unit was packaged by Microsoft and they were to take full responsibility for defective units.</p>
<p>Yeah right.</p>
<p>Roughly a 30% fail rate and MS customer support constantly saying to take it back to the store because they wouldn&#39;t repair them or replace damaged disks. Cost the company a LOT of money because of it.</p>

<p><span style="font-size:11px;">TWO RROD&#39;s but I have two still functional 360&#39;s.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11px;">I rarely play the PS3 or 360 though. Consoles are the domain of my kids. In fact the only time I play a console game is if the game is not available for the PC. Graphics are important to me and the consoles just don&#39;t have the fidelity I am looking for in their graphics horsepower.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11px;">The xbox 720 and PS4&nbsp;will be shiny for like a month, then I&#39;ll be back in front of the PC&nbsp;Even my 9 year old son prefers the PC though.</span></p>

<p>I own 2 Xboxes.</p>
<p>The first was a first generation Xbox 360 that had its first and only red ring during the Halo 3 beta =[ Microsoft replaced it for free and it had worked fine ever since. I am currently lending this console out and have had no complaints about it.</p>
<p>The other Xbox is the newer, smaller black model (Xbox 360 S?) which I purchased second hand. I believe it is about about 2-3 years old and I have never had a problem with it.</p>
<p>I do not spend a&nbsp;<strong>lot</strong> of time playing games these days but apart from the one RROD I have have had no other problems. (I have seen 1 or 2 other RROD with other people&#39;s consoles though.)</p>
